      Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD86
      Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD86
      Upregulation of membrane CD86 (B7-2) on activated B lymphocytes. Freshly isolated (left panel) or 72-hour LPS-stimulated BALB/c splenocytes (right panel) were pretreated with Mouse BD Fc Block™ purified anti-mouse CD16/CD32 mAb 2.4G2 (Cat. No. 553141/553142) and either unstained (shaded histograms) or stained with purified GL1 mAb (open histograms) followed by FITC-conjugated anti-rat IgG2a mAb RG7/1.30 (Cat. No. 553896, shaded and open histograms). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ Flow Cytometry System. Resting lymphocytes (left panel) or activated blasts (right panel) were selected according to light-scatter profile.

      Recommended Assay Procedures

      Mouse BD Fc Block™ purified anti-CD16/CD32 mAb 2.4G2 (Cat. No. 553141/553142) may help to reduce non-specific binding of GL1 antibody to cells bearing Fcγ-receptors. When performing immunofluorescent staining in the presence of Mouse BD Fc Block™, a second step antibody which does not cross-react with the 2.4G2 antibody (Rat IgG2b, κ) must be used. We have found that FITC-conjugated mouse anti-rat IgG2a (clone RG7/1.30, Cat. No. 553896) works well for this purpose.

      Immunohistochemistry: For IHC, we recommend the use of purified GL1 mAb in our special formulation for immunohistochemistry, Cat. No. 550542).

      Product Notices

      1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
      2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
      3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
      4. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.

      GL1

      The GL1 antibody specifically recognizes the B7-2 (CD86) costimulatory molecule expressed on a broad spectrum of leukocytes, including B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, thioglycollate-induced peritoneal macrophages, dendritic cells and astrocytes. CD86 is expressed at low levels by freshly explanted peripheral B and T cells, and its expression is substantially increased by a variety of T cell- and B cell-specific stimuli with a peak expression after 18-42 hours of culture. In contrast to most naive CD4+ T cells, memory CD4+ T cells express B7-2, both at the mRNA and protein level. CD86, a ligand for CD28 and CD152 (CTLA-4), is one of the accessory molecules that plays an important role in T cell-B cell costimulatory interactions. It has been shown to be involved in immunoglobulin class-switching and triggering of mouse NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. CD80 (B7-1) is an alternate ligand for CD28 and CD152 (CTLA-4). GL1 antibody reportedly blocks MLR and stimulation of T cells by natural antigen-presenting cells. In addition, a mixture of anti-B7-1 and anti B7-2 (GL1) mAbs reportedly inhibits the in vitro interaction of CTLA-4 with its ligand and the in vivo priming of cytotoxic T lymphocytes.

      This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.

      Purified
      Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
